Meet- ing with some Hirosaki stu- dents who wanted to speak English, Jeff and Harry and the Japanese students visited the more fashionable coffee shops of Hirosaki: ‘“Goyem,” “Bambi,” and “Dommino.” The Hirosaki area was more interesting to sightsee due to the many interesting sights: An entire street of Buddhist and Shinto temples where one temple grounds contained a 600-year-old bell; a historic 5-storied Japanese pagoda; a shrine wherein is contained one third of the ashes of the great Buddha; the infamous Hirosaki castle where every spring a beautiful and well- attended cherry blossom fes- tival occurs; and also the campus of Hirosaki univer- sity which is currently in- volved in a massive renova- tion program. Most of the sightseeing in Hirosaki was accomplished on bicycles that cost only 200 yen (56¢) for the entire day. Oh, yes, a unique breakfast is available in Hirosaki—Chocolate pan- cakes, wiich both fellows en- joyed for the first time in their lives. Three Important Addresses U. S. SENATORS JOSEPH S.

Since Harry had to be back in Misawa to work, Jeff and Harry had to cut short their stay in Hirosaki and head back for Misawa on a late coal-burning train— yes, Japan still has them, as well as modern diesels and electrics like the “GG-1" of the Pennsylvania R. R. Again two days later they took off on an overnite trip to the most beautiful forest area of Japan, called Lake Towada, which was original- ly a volcano that collapsed. This area would very easily compare with the Poconos or Niagara Falls, according to popularity with the Japan- ese; In fact, enroute to Yasu- miya, the resort town beside the lake, the bus stops along the road and guide and bus: girls points out the many mountain streams and water- falls and other landmarks and at one point even stops speaking Japanese and in very clear English identifies one of the waterfalls as “The Japanese Little Niagara.” One morning was spent hiking the trail along the Disase River that flows from Lake Towado. This trail al- lows you to see many of the beautiful sights from up close. It was during this hike on June 29 that there on the path was an American who very calmly said to Jeff and Harry, “Hi!’ Pm from Saint Cloud, Minnesota” (This man was an educator over here on a Fulbright-Hayes scholar- ship). Thinking of weird places to meet Americans, another incident occurred as the fer- ry was docking at Hakodate: Jeff and Harry were surpris- ed to find a japanese woman who spoke faultless American venacular. When asked why, she replied, “Oh, I have been living in Chicago for fourteen years.” Small World?? Having enjoyed all these sights and sounds — If you talk to Jeff when he is back in the states in a few months after his discharge from the Navy ask him what is the pecular sound of the Japan- ese garbage trucks?? — Jeff left Misawa on July 1 for Tokyo where he was going to sightsee. * # &® Both Harry and Jeff are members of Trinity Lutheran church, were members of Boy Scout Troop 39, and are graduates of Donegal high school. Jeff attended Millers- ville State college before en- tering the Navy and Harry has an A.B. degree from Newberry college, Newberry, South Carolina.
